Matt LeBlanc gets his hands on the new Porsche 911 R while Chris Harris puts Honda's reimagined NSX through its paces. Chris Evans discovers old-fashioned charm in the somehow new MGB Roadster, as Rory Reid heads to Scotland with the first ever right-hand-drive Ford Mustang. Grey's Anatomy star Patrick Dempsey and Man Down funny man Greg Davies are tonight's Stars in a Rallycross Car, plus a treat for the whole team, including Sabine Schmitz and Eddie Jordan.

Top Gear breaks new ground, with a brand new spin-off companion show. Rory Reid gets up close and personal with fellow Top Gear presenter Sabine Schmitz at her racing workshop in Germany, and Chris Harris gives his own unique take on the Ariel Nomad. Rory reveals the secrets of the new Top Gear track and comedian Chris Ramsey will join them both for his take on this exciting first episode.

Caution: contains explicit language. Hosts Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May are in Russia, taking part in a race across the urban landscape of St Petersburg. May defends the honor of the car in a very small Renault, Hammond tries to prove that pedaling is faster by riding a bicycle, while Clarkson attempts to demonstrate that water is the quickest way across town by piloting a hovercraft. Plus, Ed Sheeran takes to the test track in the "Star in a Reasonably Priced Car" segment.

Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May continue their journey in three ancient and barely functioning trucks, heading toward their final challenge - building a bridge over River Kwai in Thailand. Having climbed mountains and endured a Burmese trucker stop, they must now venture into the Shan state, an area rife with civil war and normally closed to Western TV crews.
